HOW I WAS FEELING
I was feeling REALLY beautiful, confident, and excited about life on this trip at the beginning of March 2022.
We came to the island for my sister’s wedding which of course is a joyous occasion. The joy of the occasion as well as my overall happiness and feeling less angry (more on this later) allowed me to have this confidence.
Of course, being on a beautiful island with gorgeous weather as well as being in the sun does help with your mood. This vacation made me excited for life again because it allowed me to get out of the mundane day to day of teaching after Winter Break.
This school year has been extraordinarily challenging in different ways because my school is still doing a hybrid model of teaching which is like teaching in the COVID year.
Additionally, the challenges of behaviors of students who haven’t been in school socializing for 2 years have been a lot.
This trip was a MUCH needed reset and has given me reminders of the joy of life I needed to keep going and feel refreshed. I need to make a March trip a yearly thing!
A BIG GOAL WAS REACHED
This dress that I was wearing was bought when I was 225 pounds. I told myself I’d wear it when I felt better, and this was the first time I wore it out! I finally got under 200 pounds right before the trip. I haven’t seen the low 190-pound range since my wedding.
I was around 210 pounds before my wedding in 2016 and it took me about 6 months of strict meal replacement shakes and working out every day for 20 min to lose weight.
I was tired of this regimen and didn’t feel great, but I looked a lot better so that was nice!=
Working out generally doesn’t make me feel better long term. I feel stronger when I work out and feel like I can do more.
With medical medium liver cleanses and a little intermittent fasting, I’ve lost 35 pounds in 2 years. Most of that came off with liver cleanses. I lost about 10 pounds doing intermittent fasting for about 6 months.
When I do a 9 day cleanse I lose at least 5 pounds. I tend to gain it back if I follow the no foods list strictly or if I eat a lot of fat. (More on in an upcoming post)
Before this St. Thomas trip, I weighed in the low 190s! I went dress shopping before the trip and bought many more dresses because I just felt good in them! I also brought this black dress with me because I felt comfortable enough to wear it in public and felt like my stomach was flat enough to look good in it!
My goal weight is 160 pounds. I know I can get there THIS Year in 2022! My goal is to try and get there before this summer so I can wear a bikini again, comfortably.
The Black Dress!
I WASN’T ALWAYS FEELING THIS WAY
My skin not looking too good in 2-22-21.
I have come a long way to feel like this because I did not have the highest self-esteem even just 1 year ago.
In fact, my skin got a lot worse before it got better!
I was also not feeling well with acid reflux waking me up at night and migraines that shot through my eye that would hurt so bad.
I was also cranky and angry all of the time. Being a school teacher I would have many interactions with various people. Looking back I realized I would come to anger quickly.
It was only in hindsight that I knew this. Being in the moment I always thought other people were the problem. It turns out the saying, “Be the change you wish to see in the world” is sooooooo true!
Even now I’m still working on my self-esteem. Re-reading this caption makes me a little uncomfortable, but it was truly how I was feeling on the trip and in the moment.
Before finding MM info I have tried all the things to lose weight and get rid of my acne which I’ve had since 5th grade. I was able to lose the weight if I tried really hard, but I always felt like I was starving myself each time. It was always difficult for me to lose weight and at best it was only 1 pound a week if I was very strict.
Following Medical Medium I am NEVER hungry and lose about 5x as much weight in the same amount of time. (More on this in another blog post!)
We are ALL beautiful and sometimes it takes just cleaning things up and having a different mindset to realize it!
HOW DID I GET HERE?
I have been doing Medical Medium protocols for about 1.5 years now. These pictures in St. Thomas were taken after I’ve completed the 7th liver cleanse. I will be writing about these cleanses on this blog as well so look out for that!
The first cleanse I ever did was at the end of August 2020. I noticed my eyes were so clear and bright and my skin had this glow about it in the later part of the cleanse!
I knew I had found a gold mine!
Cleaning up your liver makes you happier in general.
The first cleanse was so challenging that it was almost 9 months before I attempted another cleanse! I also had Covid in January 2021 and lost my sense of taste.
That made me not want to try the MM recipes. It was a lot of work to put these things together for me so I wanted to be able to taste what I was making to figure out if I liked it or not! Taste is important to me being a Taurus who loves food! I also have taste as my strongest sense in Human Design. (More on this in another blog post!)
From May 2021 – to March 2022 I completed 7 rounds of the 369 liver cleanse. They were mostly original cleanses, but I did do one round of the advanced cleanse!
I also have done the Heavy Metal Detox cleanse and Liver Morning cleanses most days these past 1.5 years. The only thing that may deter me is a family event, eating out with my husband or a trip.
I stay away from the No foods list the best I can. I am not perfect with this!
And I tell anyone who will listen to me about the success I’ve experienced following this information.
I’m not going to lie! Following MM info is NOT easy. Especially if you are the only one in your family eating that way. Especially if you never really cooked regularly before! (Which was me…)
But it is worth it!
LIVER RESCUE QUOTES
“Liver Rescue” by Anthony William.
Medical Medium has written several books. One of them is called “Liver Rescue; Answers to eczema, psoriasis, diabetes, strep, acne, gout, bloating, gallstones, adrenal stress, fatigue, fatty liver, weight issues, SIBO & autoimmune disease.” By Anthony William.
The title says it all! Here are some AMAZING quotes from chapter 1, “What Your Liver Does for You”.
- Excerpt from page 5 – Truth is, your liver is the best friend you’ve ever had. It performs over 2,000 critical functions that are undiscovered by medical research and science. It works hard for you night and day. It prepares ahead when it knows you need extra support, and it’s there to clean up the mess after your earthy mistakes. It’s a storehouse, a filter, a processing center, a garbage service, and more. It shields you, it protects you, and it defends you from every angle. It’s been looking out for you all along – dying out fires, defusing bongs, taking bullets for you, rounding up all the bad guys inside of you, and preventing internal disasters. Your liver is the reason, after everything you’ve been through in life, that you’re still alive.
- Page 6 – Liver rescue is about your heart, brain, immune system, skin, and gut. It’s about sleeping well, balancing blood sugar, lowering blood pressure, losing weight, and looking and feeling younger. It’s about being clearer-headed, more peaceful, happier. It’s about being able to adapt to our fast-changing times. Saying yes to liver support is the most efficient action on your to-do list. A healthy liver is the ultimate de-stressor, the ultimate anti-aging ally, the ultimate safeguard against a threatening world. It’s key to mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being. Turning your attention to your liver is not the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back, it’s the helping hand that lightened the camel’s load and saved its life.
- Page 7 – It’s not an overstatement to say that if every person walking around this planet right now had a healthy liver, the world would be a different place. Illness wouldn’t have the hold it does on the population. Anger, rage, greed, and violence wouldn’t fill the news. Fear wouldn’t define the modern age. That’s how tied into our being liver health is.
The last quote really stayed with me as it talks about how if everyone just cleaned up their livers, we would live in a better world where joy and happiness is everywhere! MM has a final chapter in the book, “The Storm Will Pass”.
Here he talks about how peace and compassion are integral parts to healing.
He also mentions how the words in his book are LIVING WORDS and living words hold LIGHT!! Reading his books I can attest to this because they resonate so much with my inner knowing that I have found this gold mine of information!
Final quote from page 441. “All storms pass. From that wisdom, you can see you are not the source of your suffering. It’s life’s weather, and you get to protect yourself from it.”
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!
I have only touched the surface of what is in this book!
“Liver Rescue” by Anthony William
TO ALL THE SKEPTICS
Yes, Anthony William, the Medical Medium is a medium! That means he gets his information from a spirit, Spirit of Compassion to be exact.
SOC for short.
If you do a quick search for Anthony William the Medical Medium or look at his Instagram, or Facebook or Tik Tok; you will see thousands of people who follow and like his posts as well as some who don’t like the info.
You will also find healing stories of chronic illness from countless followers!
Sometimes it takes a few years to heal; your body CAN HEAL!!
Your body is NOT attacking itself!
Your body is attacking viruses and bacteria AKA pathogens.
The proof is in the pudding!
